    50BMG ranges near Austin, TX

    Does anyone know of ranges near Austin that can handle 50BMG at ranges of 500-750 yards? I know there are no public ranges that have that distance but perhaps there are some private ranges? Anyone have some input? Thanks.

    I'm trying to find some netting with hole sizes that are slightly larger than mosquito netting but smaller than baseball netting that is available in yard sizes. I want to make an "area" brass catcher with it but want people to be able to see through it better than mosquito netting. That way...

    FTF on first strike with HK USP

    I posted a while back on some issues I was having with an HK USP 40 that wouldn't always light off primers on the first strike from a cocked position. Usually a second pull of the trigger in DA mode lit off the round. I switched from CCI primers to Winchester and haven't had an issue in 1-1/2...

    New RCBS toy... I mean tool! Chargemaster Combo

    I picked up a RCBS chargemaster combo off gunbroker and finally got to try that baby out tonight. All I have to say is that all the reviews I read are right, this thing is slick. Easy to use, dispenses powder accurately, is fast, and cleans up very easily. I only had a chance to run some...

    10mm+Glock+MP5 Brass+Hot Load = "Fun Times"

    My buddy bought himself a Glock 20C and said, "Hey can we reload for this?" I tell him, sure we can, we just need some brass. The guy I normally get brass from doesn't have any 10mm processed but he says that he has some once fired out of an MP5 that we could use if we wanted. Great price and we...

    Load won't cycle action, just reduce OAL?

    I am experimenting in the low end of the powder range and I've finally found a load that won't cycle my weapon consistently. I'm trying to develop loads that are super easy to shoot in 9mm for beginners or just for low-stress plinking. The casings usually fail to extract without feeding the next...

    They don't just want your guns!

    I thought this was interesting... http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,149139,00.html Note... But some maintain such devices should be left to the authorities — not the public. Even devices that are non-lethal (or very low risk for death compared to a gun) aren't okay. They just...
